Quote: We'd have it plastered all over the main news channels, with live feeds.
The Northwest were made aware of the potential rainfall days before it happened and preparation was made for possible evacuations as and when they were needed. I fail to see why the people down south need to know the potential for floods 100's of miles away. If they did need to know they could check the weather forecast for the area of interest |

"The Fells, the Fells, the water comes tumbling down the Fells!"

I would have thought with all the rail closures on the WCML, a certain (C)Cab driver from those parts will also be doing rather well at the moment with contract work.
